Anker SOLIX Smart Meter – real-time energy management for your home system

The Anker SOLIX Smart Meter (model A17X7) brings smart measurement and control technology into your home. This DIN-rail energy meter records your power consumption per phase, signals this to your Solarbank (E1600 or E2700 Pro), and thus ensures optimised discharge and storage of your solar power.

Key features

• Real-time monitoring: continuously measures your power consumption with CT transformers
• Charge/discharge control: controlled by app and Smart Meter to display tariffs and consumption and automate switching options (< 3 s, accurate to ±10 W)
• Connectivity: Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and RS-485 interface for reliable connection to Solarbank and app
• Easy DIN-rail installation in meter box, with compact size (±95 × 66.5 × 36 mm, 360 g)
• Professional installation recommended: requires cabling to main bus groups due to safety regulations
• Smart energy modes via app: Self-Consumption, Custom Schedule, AI control and dynamic energy scheduling possible via Solarbank composition
• Load automatic control: minimum own consumption voltage, maximum solar optimisation, less feed-in to the grid (<350 W feed-in)

Why add a Smart Meter?

The Smart Meter makes your solar power system more intelligent. It ensures that:

• The Solarbank only supplies power when it is needed
• Energy goes to your own consumption first, then to storage or the grid
• You save on energy bills with dynamic pricing and planned discharge
